About Me

I pretty much have had a love/hate feeling/relationship with every city/town I've ever lived (at least from around teenage years to now)...although the ratio of love:hate has varied from place to place. Here are the ratios: Chicago, IL: 87:13. Carrboro/Chapel Hill, NC: 70:30. Columbia, MO: 62:38. St. Louis, MO: 50:50. Raleigh, NC, Annandale, VA, and Ann Arbor, MI don't count since I was just a kid.

Nader Supporters Blame Electoral Defeat On

WASHINGTON, DC — Supporters of presidential candidate Ralph Nader blamed his defeat Tuesday on George W. Bush and John Kerry, claiming that the two candidates "ate up" his share of the electoral votes. "This election was stolen out from under Mr. Nader by Bush and Kerry, who diverted his votes to the right and the left," Nader campaign manager Theresa Amato said. "It's an outrage. If Nader were the only candidate, he would be president right now." In his concession speech, Nader characterized Bush and Kerry as spoilers.
